Tamil Translation Issue #21

Closed disguisedshadow closed 4 months ago

Greetings, @martijnlentink Sorry, was not aware about your earlier messages about the issue I had raised about the Translation being wrong in ProPresenter vs. the translation on Bible.com This is the Translation on Bible.com The Reference is Genesis 1:1 and Version used is "TAVOBSI". I have Highlighted the specific Consonants in the tamil scrip in the verse. Bible com Translation This is the Verse displayed on Propresenter after importing Bible from your Program. I have highlighted the same areas as on the image about the Translation on Bible.com ProPresenter Translation Compare both of the images side by side and you will notice that the Dots "." above each letter in tamil is missing on the ProPresenter version in your program. That little "." make difference in the Tamil Script and can change the meaning of the words. Omission of the Dot "." is the issue in your Program.

The YouVersion [Bible.com] image is the correct translation with the Dots "." at the necessary places and the latter is the image about the omission of Dots "." in ProPresenter

Thanks for getting back to me on this. I again spent some time on this and indeed observed the same behavior in ProPresenter. I am afraid this can't be fixed though, if you look at the source files you do see that the characters appear to have the correct diacritics. Take a look at this screenshot which shows the bible file that is created for ProPresenter and how ProPresenter is actually rendering it.

It could be an encoding issue though, but I don't think that is the case. I am sorry I can't help you any further at this point.
